Arsenal have not lifted the Premier League trophy since all the way back in 2004, and Collymore believes Wenger should be replaced by an elite manager.

Simeone, who has impressed with Atletico Madrid, has been touted as the ideal candidate to come in, with Wenger coming towards the end of his contract.

Ozil, however, is another major figure at the Emirates Stadium whose future is in doubt due to stalled contract talks, but Collymore feels he may be a player worth losing for real change.

Writing in the Daily Mirror, he said: ‘The question I’d like to ask Arsenal fans is this: Do you want Mesut Ozil to stay beyond this season if it means Arsene Wenger remaining as well, or do you sacrifice Ozil if it means Wenger going and Diego Simeone coming in instead?
